Virginia state flag redesign

Design and symbolism

While Virginia’s seal has a certain gravitas, it feels more like a monument to the American Revolution than a reflection of the state itself. The theme of "Victory defeating Tyranny" could apply to any of the original thirteen colonies, and the popular fascination with the seal's anatomical details isn't a strong enough reason to keep a design that lacks a unique connection to modern Virginia.I have replaced the seal with the dogwood, the state flower, set against a blue and red bicolor field. At the center, the yellow star evokes its proximity to Washington, D.C., while lhe red, white, and blue palette reflects the state's vital role as home to key federal agencies.
